Yes, that works very well for simply powering down Squeezeboxes. My setup is slightly different. I have a QSC 300 Watt rack mount amp that powers my whole house system, 10 speakers round the house. I also use a 500 Watt powered subwoofer that has its own piCorePlayer and is physically across the room. What I do is to wait until my bit of home built electronics times out for lack of signal and then I use an Arduino to actuate an RF mains switch the other end of which switches off the mains power to the subwoofer. Upon receiving signal, the reverse happens. It has worked well for the last 3 years.
I have always wished to use a more elegant solution. I think what I am going to do is to take the GPIO pin from the RPi that PC provides and run that via an opto-coupler into my existing Arduino. Within a week or so I think I can have this working. The only down-side is that I will need to physically switch off the piCorePlayer myself. This was why I wanted the music present signal. However until that is forthcoming I can live with the On/Off switch condition. I would still like to see a GPIO pin raised when audio is present if it could be done.
